With the rapid development of Web 2.0 technology, more and more enterprises outsource their internal business processes as Web APIs that enable external developers to easily create web applications by integrating data and functions instead of building it themselves. These combined web applications are referred to as mashups, which have an active role in the evolution of social software and Web 2.0.

This project aims to build a business service mashup framework based on cloud computing platform. The PhD Student will mainly conduct research on the following three topics:

• Business service APIs discovery and mashup.
• Personalized recommendation of business APIs.
• The design and implementation of a business service mashup framework based on the Hadoop cloud computing platform.
